How to Print RepRapPro Huxley

Introduction

You can print all the plastic parts for a complete RepRapPro Huxley in another Huxley or any other model of RepRap, of course. The RepRapPro Huxley on the right has just printed the last of four trays of parts for a copy of itself.

You can also print them using virtually any other 3D printer such as a MakerBot or Stratasys or Cube. (The only 3D printers known not to work are ZCorp powder printers - their manufactured parts are too weak.)

This page tells you all you need to know in order to print a Huxley for yourself, for a friend, or for sale.

How much plastic?

One complete set of printed RepRapPro Huxley parts weighs about 260 grams. (Note that this weight does depend on your print settings: the closer the infill the heavier the parts.)

260 grams of 1.75mm diameter PLA is about 87 meters of filament.

260 grams of 3mm diameter PLA is about 30 meters of filament.

Print a RepRap Huxley on a RepRap Mendel

This works for either the standard Mendel or the Prusa Mendel.
